Poll: Crysis 2 or Brink

[Total LOLige]

I can't decide which one to get so, I want you to decide for me. I will be buying it for the xbox

Crysis 2, unless you realllllllllly love multiplayer with no real campaign.

Crysis 2 is the better singleplayer game, largely because Brink doesn't have a singleplayer mode worth bothering with. I've also heard bad things about Brink's 360 version, although I don't know if its genuine problems or people being discouraged that it's not Call of Duty. Unlike Crysis 2, where the multiplayer modes are pretty much Call of Duty... IN THE FUTURE!

Overall, for the Xbox, I'd be inclined to say Crysis 2.

Crysis 2-great single player game
Brink- very fun multiplayer if you're looking to do more than just your usual deathmatch games.

Crysis 2's online is DEAD. I couldn't find a single match on it. (PC)

If you want singleplayer, go with Crysis. Multiplayer, go with Brink. It's supposed to have some lag issues on console, though, so go with PC if you can. If not, you may have to deal with shitty servers.

Crysis 2 is a damn fun shooter, albeit with problems. I've not heard much good about Brink but I'm sure it'll be a fine game in a few months after the kinks are ironed out.

Either's a fine choice but I rather like Crysis 2, though the enemies are impressively thick. They're dumber than Quake 1 bad guys, thicker than pigshit! I think it's a glitch in the AI scripting for handling cloak-mode.

Totally off topic, DAT AVATAR. Man, I don't hear enough about that game these days. Pure brilliance.

Anyway, OT: As a single player guy myself I've gotta go with Crysis 2.

You might have the same problem I am having, you need to find a way to manually update the game, for some reason for some people the game thinks it updated and it didn't and thus there are no games/servers left in the list.
After updating there were a hefty amounts of people/servers playing. Granted there aren't hundreds of servers, but I think I saw at least like 50 or so.

Weird. How did you get it to update?

I honestly don't recall since I'm like 2,000 miles away from my gaming computer. I don't remember a step by step process but it had something to do with deleting a file that told the game it was the current version and then launching the game with the autoupdater exe.

Hmmm.... I'll try to figure it out. I can probably google it. I'm relatively new to the whole PC thing, but other than stuff like this, it's great.

Yea, PC gaming usually isn't an obscene hassle (besides the occasional terrible DRM), EA just is terrible at supporting their games and solving problems when they crop up, like this update nightmare.

 

[Aphex Demon]

For me, Crysis 2 got boring as fuck after about 3-4 hours gameplay. It became extremely repetitive. Don't get me wrong it's an awesome game but it didn't deliver well enough for me in the story.

Brink on the other hand is awesome fun, and the multiplayer is awesome.

So, BRINk!

Yeah, I've never liked EA, even on non-PC games. Their servers kept not loading all my weapon unlocks on BC2, even on the xbox 360. It pisses me off.

I went and bought crysis 2, it's pretty cool. I'll probably get brink when the price has gone down, only problem is would people still be playing it online a few months down the line.

 

[Googenstien]

Crysis 2. its just a better game overall

 

[IBlackKiteI]

Crysis 2 all the way.

The campaign is really good for an FPS (about 10-12 hours long) and the only real downside to the multiplayer is occasional lag.

 

[Clive Howlitzer]

This is a no win situation. You are doomed.

 

[MrMrAwesom]

I didn't get either but look up Brink review by wingsofredemption, & thats all I can say because my crysis 2 thoughts were that the beta sucked major amounts of crap, but the full game might be good. I didn't want to risk it because the beta was just as bad as the brink lag in the video forementioned.

 

[Vindestructable]

they both kinda suck but crysis 2 was less sucky

 

[Seieko Pherdo]

If you ask a bunch of random people a question like this you'll most get answers based on their preferences instead of your own. And you haven't given us any information on you want/like about a game. Back to the topic at hand I'D personally get Crysis 2, however I have not played it. But this coming from a person who doesn't care about online modes (Which I think Brink has)
